Welcome to New to You! This idea came along last year when I was supporting Lauren Miller’s newest book All Things New and I asked Kelsey to read and review Parallel, a book I have read more than once.

16 Blogging Days of Winter –..

I could sit hear and post a million quote from books that I have loved or felt a connection to. There have been so many great things that I have read it books. But I had to go with my gut and stick with two. Well two and an extra one because it more than explains how I feel about some books, the book it came from as a main example. Everytime I am asked for a favorite book quote I give the Twenty Boy Summer quote because it hits on so many things. It hits on the book, it […]
